Vinyl Purchase # 14 - Joni Mitchell
£10.00 Record Stall Canterbury
I had it on CD. Now I have it on vinyl. Which is better. It has a mottled sleeve and it's gatefold with the lyrics. This song, strangely was covered by Scottish rockers Nazareth.
Lyrics on this album are simply mind-blowing. I'm teaching "A Case of You" in my Introduction to Poetry class next semester, next to Elliott Smith's "Between the Bars." Metaphors of love and drinking.
